ENPPI coach Rainer Zobel is set to exclude striker Magdi Abdul-Atti from his side's squad after his disappointing performance in the 3-0 defeat to Zamalek in the Egyptian League.

"Zobel is preparing Ahmed Al-Mohamadi to field him instead of Abdul-Atti, who missed several scoring opportunities against Zamalek," a source close to ENPPI club told FilGoal.com on Tuesday.

ENPPI president Fakhri Eid said he wants to offload Abdul-Atti in addition of goalkeeper Mostafa Kamal, who put on a dismal performance in Zamalek game.

Meanwhile, the team's football director Alaa Abdul-Sadek said he is surprised by the attack directed at ENPPI following their defeat to Zamalek.

"We do not deserve this scathing attack as we are missing many players through injuries and Zobel is yet to settle on the ideal squad," he said.

Abdul-Sadek stated the club will impose financial fines on any player receives yellow or red card.

Meanwhile, ENPPI will face Al-Gouna in a friendly game to prepare for Ismaili clash in the Egyptian League.

ENNPI are in 10th place of the league table with three points.
